Protocols

Epicollect5

Our main protocols are on this page available to download for use. 

Our Epicollect5 phase of the program consisted of a total of five different protocols based on number of pages for data input and language. These were made for accessibility purposes. Given the growth the citizen science program underwent over the years, we recommend using the more 'comprehensive' versions of the app with complete information rather than the 'easy' versions that are reduced in data input. 

The comprehensive versions of the Epicollect5 project are 'Sargassum Watch' in English and 'Monitoreo de Sargassum' in Spanish. The easy versions are 'EZ Sargassum' and 'Sargazo Facil' for English and Spanish, respectively.
